April 29 102 P.A.

Oliver McPherson wakes up sore, still recouping from his wounds, in his luxurious hotel room. Oliver attempts to contact Frank's APC radio, there is no response. Oliver gears up with his weapons and armor and heads downstairs in search of breakfast. When he arrives in the lobby the concierge asks Oliver if he will be leaving before breakfast. Oliver inquires about breakfast and the concierge tells him, "Breakfast is complementary here at the Continental, but you can't wear... walk around all geared up. I assure you, you are safe within the walls of the Continental. You will make the other guest nervous and uneasy." Oliver goes back to his room to shed his armor and weapons, then returns to the dinning room. He sees people sitting at tables eating, Oliver sits at one of the empty tables. On the table he sees a button that says press for service. Oliver presses the button and almost immediately a waitress comes out and asks him what he would like. Oliver asks for a menu, she tells him, "There are no menus at the Continental." He orders a Canadian breakfast with Orange Juice, it comes out rather quickly.

In another fancy hotel not to far away, Takeo Takahido awakes in the luxurious hotel room, that the rest of the party is staying in. Wearing only his traditional robe undergarments Takeo begins stretching. Frank Hamilton wakes up to see Takeo stretching and everyone else still asleep. While bending over Takeo's left nut falls out of his undergarments. Frank seizes the opportunity to mess with Takeo. He uses his telekinesis to flick Takeo's testicle, then laid back down and pretended to sleep. Takeo flinches in pain and turns in time to see Frank throwing himself down, closing his eyes, pretending to sleep. Takeo continues his stretches, as the rest of the party members begin to awake.

Trevor Burnside, Runick Skyknight and Takeo head downstairs to look for beakfast. Nobody has seen Kreesh since they left him downstairs in the outdoor pool with his killer whale friend Kujira, last night. Frank goes to his APC to radio Oliver, no response. He notices a message has been sent and needs to be opened.

Frank reads the message; Hamilton, Frank - private 1st class Psi-Slayer- Our situation is drastically changing fast here. We need you to return now, and bring back -Burnside, Trevor - Citizenship Candidate Psi-Tech. The Magic Zone threatens our existence and those we've held as allies for years may not be the loyalist Coalition States that we believe them to be. We need all resources on hand, you have 2 months to return to the city of Chi-Town. You have been wired 600,000 credits to aid you in your speedy return.


Frank returns to the hotel room dinning area. In there he sees everyone else eating and grabbing food from a buffet style line. When everyone is finished eating they decide to head for the Continental, along the way Oliver radios the APC again. Frank tells Oliver that they are already on the way to pick him up. Oliver checks out of the Continental and waits for them outside.


Oliver tells the party that Izen the TW has agreed to come with in 1 weeks time. Runick suggests that they secure passage back to the New Empire. So they drive to the docks in Takamatsu City, when they arrive they see passenger ships and cargo ships. Frank uses his street wise to spot the foreman of the cargo area. Frank negotiates with the foreman and pays for safe passage in exactly 1 week at noon aboard the ship the Shunkan Kaiju in dock 20, in exchange for 170,000. The foreman warns him not to mention this deal to anyone and to just board the ship. "If you ask no one will know anything about a deal, and you can be considered as stowaways. But if you keep you head down my men won't say anything."


After securing passage, the party travels to the market district. Takeo and Trevor notice the tower that was attacked by the weapons system that Trevor created is being rebuilt. Runick buys a ream of paper, some needles and thread. Oliver trades a gem for 3 Thunder Clap scrolls, some copper wiring, and miscellaneous parts.Trevor borrows money from Frank and purchases a TW Lightning Mace. Frank purchases a TW Flame Sword and TW Flame Dagger and has them inscribed with the CS skull and the the initials F.H. Takeo trades his flame sword for 1 scroll of house of glass, 1 scroll of life source, and 1 scroll of invisibility simple. He also trades his Plasma Knight Sword for a scroll of Domination.


While shopping a magic pigeon flies up to Takeo and disperses revealing its message. The voice of the high priest says, "Takeo the Millennium Tree has fallen. It has gone missing and so has your brother Shonen. The Resistance has been halted in the 4th ring. We need your help!"

The party hurries back to the docks and find the foreman. Frank asks about leaving immediately and getting a ride back. The foreman makes a deal to get him out on a ship leaving in an hour, but no arrangement was made for the return trip. They do know that a ship will be passing by in 3 days. Oliver suggests taking a stargate, like the ones he was commissioned to fix. They travel baack to the T.W. shop and inquire about the portals. The shop owner tell them that stagates are rare in Japan. It's said the 2 towers of Mitsubishi and Sony have stargates in them. With no luck, they return to the ship docks and the party quietly gets on the boat and keep their heads down, as instructed. Nobody says anything to them as they stay seemingly quiet. As the ship starts moving Takeo loses his balance and bumps into Frank's flame swords, as he was showing them off. The ship ride will be 14 hours long.


Oliver drafts a sketch of 6 of the 9 tools that were in the bow makers tent. He also sells Frank 2 carats of diamond for $30,000. After arriving on shore the party quickly drives back to the 5th ring, in Frank's APC. Trevor retrieves the Big Bear Robot vehicle and Takeo goes with Runick to see the old drunk. Takeo tries talking with the old man and shows him his swords. The old dunk continues to drink and talks a little about the demon qullers' society, hen passes out. Takeo and Runick carry him back to his tent. The party then gears up and is ready to get going.


Before getting in the APC, Oliver tries to send a magic pigeon to Shonen, the pigeon flies up, circles a few times, falls out of the sky, and dissipates. The party then radio Hagi but don't get an answer, so they drive toward the battle. They see some troops retreating and hear that Hagi was leading the charge and hasn't been seen since yesterday. The rest of the troops have fallen back for now. The party quickly heads to the front lines of the battle.


When they arrive the see a small platoon of demons and fall back. Oliver sends a series of magic pigeons to various people: to Hagi "We came back to find you, but can't see you. It seems the frontlines are overrun. Where are you at?" to Ruoku "We heard the Millennium Tree is missing, we need to know where you are? Where's Shonen?" to Izo the pigeon dissipates, to Nymar "We can really use some of your ocean magic" and to the High Priest the pigeon dissipates. After a short while a magic pigeon comes flying in toward them. The message is from Hagi, "So glad you guys are back. We are getting our over run, tell me you brought the TW back with you. I don't know how many have made it, but a small group of us are held up in a small cave to the west." The party goes to look for the cave and they get waved down by one of the rebels.

Takeo and oliver go into the cave to meet with Hagi. Hagi asks them to rally the troops that have fallen back and get them to charge the remaining demon monsters in one last attack. Hagi gives them a magic medallion as a symbol to show the troops to let them know Hagi is alive. As they leave Hagi gives a riveting motivational speech and troops get all riled up. Frank drives them to round up the other troops.The party and rebels fight heroically and defeat the demons. Frank cashed the APC during the battle, Runick skins some demons. The party recieve a magic pigeon from Ryoku, "Shonen is nowhere to be found."
